Since its founding 40 years ago, Continuum has developed a full line of standard and custom high energy solid state lasers that are now used in scientific, industrial and commercial applications. These applications range from spectroscopy, materials analysis and Particle Image Velocimetry to x-ray generation and high power plasma physics. With the recent expanded capability, Continuum now offers high peak power femtosecond lasers such as ultra-intense high contrast systems and high power CEP-stabilized sub-20 fs lasers.
